Abstract
Bag trapping apparatus includes a housing, a cord attached to the housing for enabling the housing to be suspended in a position elevated from an underlying horizontal surface, trapping structure on the housing for removably fixing an open upper end of a bag to the housing, and a slotted membrane through which the bag passes when the open upper end of the bag is trapped by the trapping structure. A bottom closed end of the bag is below the membrane so that waste is insertable into the bag through the membrane. The membrane provides odor control and a barrier. If a drawstring bag is used, a raised ridge may be provided on the housing to secure the drawstring.
